I’ve been reading through the documentation and looked at several tutorials, but I can’t get actionable notifications working.
Here’s an example YAML that was originally done in the GUI. It’s intented to send an actionable notification with two options, and when you click one, it should send another notification to confirm it worked.
It sends the notification fine, and when I tap the button the wait for trigger section in Home Assistant lights up to indicate that it’s been triggered. But nothing further happens.
Any help appreciated!
alias: Actionable notification test
description: ""
trigger: []
condition: []
action:
- service: notify.notify

value_template: "{{ wait.trigger.event.data.action == \"ACTION_NOTIFY\" }}"
sequence:
- service: notify.notify
metadata: {}
data:
message: Requested message
mode: single
As @[email protected] already mentioned, I would recommend using a new automation for the action. Here is a simple example from my setup:
alias: Notification Action - Disable Theater Mode description: "" trigger: - platform: event event_type: mobile_app_notification_action event_data: action: THEATER_MODE_OFF condition: [] action: - service: input_boolean.turn_off data: {} target: entity_id: input_boolean.theater_mode mode: singleThanks! I managed to get it working using one automation with three triggers (original trigger, plus one trigger for each of the two actions), where I have a conditional checking which of the triggers was the one that started the automation. It seems to work 🙂
